Found this is an article that seems to agree with your assessment: Despite making up nearly 12.8 per cent of all Division 1 NCAA athletes and 14 per cent of basketball players, foreign student-athletes are mostly unable to profit from NIL. That includes Canadians, who represent far and away the most NCAA athletes from any country outside the United States.

Well there you go 🤣

If you change styles and have the wrong personnel playing, that’s what happens. When LL got here, there were many questioning if that was a good hire or not. Turned out well. We all thought (myself included), would pickup the ball along with better recruits (which in many cases he did) and lead us forward. Unfortunately you need to coach AND recruit. I think Lembo will do well this season because I think he and his staff can coach and have really good player to work with. The jury is still out on GH3 as we aren’t sure if can recruit or coach. This is a big season for him.

Well done, it feels like we are all in one giant pool grabbing on to whatever we can to survive. I wonder how FLJ likes losing a star. Don’t believe it has really happened to her so far.

He had such a weird stay here at UB under JW and GH3. Will be interesting to see if he gets PT and can be productive there. they were 10-20 this year and looks like a new HC.

I wonder if Becky Burke put in a good word for him.

Can’t really blame the player following the coach. Will be interesting to see how he performs a level up. Personally, I think he will do really well. His coach already knows how to use him.

They lost their top 3 to the draft last year. Losing to the NBA stinks, but losing to the portal sucks way worse imo.

Tough to be a fan of any team right now. Even Duke and Kentucky are getting hit. The only one I haven’t heard much from is UConn. Not sure how they are holding up.

If true, that is a solid hire.

Armani Mighty - 6'10" C from Boston College. Has a visit to Towson and the Buffalo on Monday

one scholarship left if they choose to use it.

Honestly, we have about as much knowledge of what the guys will do as if we had a bunch of 3 and 4 star recruits. Until everyone gets together and rotations are set you don’t know. EMU was going to be really good when 4 star went to EMU, they were a dumpster fire. Segu and Williams, arguably our best recruits ever, on paper, underperformed. Nate is now in the NBA so obviously talent wasn’t the problem. Nobody knows so I’m going to be optimistic until they give me a reason not to. We won 3 games last year, I don’t think I want those top 7 back for an encore.

Yeah, I’m pretty pissed off about that honestly. I support wrestling quite a bit and things have been on the upturn and the recruiting classes continue to get better. ADMA screwed the pooch on this a number of ways. I spoke with one of the wrestlers and also one of the former assistant coaches about this and bottom line is ADMA didn’t like Coach Stutzmans approach to fighting for his guys and their health. As I assume you all know, he really only cares about football, there is no grey area there. I am really happy with the Lembo hiring and I think he is a great fit. However, no UB athlete should be made to feel like this or be subject to these conditions. I firmly believe the administration is 95% in the wrong here. The reason I’m holding back 5% is because nothing is black and white. This is a huge embarrassment and one more obstacle for the next coach to have to overcome.

Officially added to the roster.

I'm on board! Does Yao have a college eligible son yet? Also, don't forget about McVeigh

I guess even the aura of Nate Oats, all the NIL money in the world and a Final 4 doesn't make a team immune from turnover. Nick Pringle has said "Peace Out". If this is the new world order, what hope do we have to find and develop any talent.

Alrighty then. I assumed she was no longer with us, but l guess she is! Would like one more big with the last scholarship, even if it’s just another big practice body

You are right, forgot about him.

I would be on board with that. a redshirt PG would be nice for down the road.

I would suspect Belmont has some NIL program. The other two certainly do. That could be a factor as well if it came down to either or with any of these 3.

Posted by Jack Kreuzer (voice of UB WBB) earlier today. A few interesting developments: Guards (8): Chellia Watson KLW Sitota Gines Paula Lopez Noelani Cornfield (Transfer) Terah Harness (Transfer) Mallory Daly (Freshman) Aniya Rowe (Freshman) Posts (4): Alexis Davis Ariana Seawell (Transfer) Jaylin Hartman (Transfer) Bri Barr-Buday (Freshman) That leaves 12 with 3 more scholarships available. Based upon this, Ida Jonsson Ojala and Chryssi Gouzelou are also gone from the roster. Neither are a real loss in the overall scheme and the current 12 seem to be an upgrade. Also, previous Freshman Thompson is no longer listed, so she either decommitted, was academically ineligible or something. This roster above is already posted on the UB Athletics Website.

Very impressive offseason. I didn't like losing Ogden, but I think her production won't be missed. Her personality was good and she seemed like a good teammate. I think it will be a really fun season!

Very nice, thanks for the info. I have heard that Victor Snow is very fast.
